César Láinez Sanjuán (born 10 April 1977) is a Spanish retired professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper, and is the manager of CD Teruel.

He played 69 La Liga games during six seasons, with Zaragoza and Villarreal.

Club career

A

B-side, but struggled initially to find a first-team place. In January 1999 he served a six-month loan stint at Villarreal CF, playing three La Liga matches as the season ended in relegation
.

After his return to Zaragoza, Láinez had to wait until the 2001–02 campaign to become first-choice, but his team would again be relegated. He was instrumental in the Aragonese club's immediate promotion, and subsequently helped it finish in a comfortable 12th place, also conquering the Copa del Rey after an extra time win against Real Madrid.[1]

Láinez spent the entire 2004–05 recovering from knee surgery,[2] and ultimately retired from football in May 2005, at only 28.[3] He subsequently became a sports commentator for local TV channels.[4]

Láinez returned to his lifetime club Zaragoza on 9 October 2014, being appointed manager of the reserves.[5] On 19 March 2017 he replaced Raül Agné at the helm of the first team, who now competed in Segunda División.[6]

On 9 June 2017, after managing to avoid relegation with the main squad, Láinez signed a new three-year contract with the reserve side.[7]
